Second program

**Elite** · 07-25-2003

Hi again, i started programming c like 8 hours ago and i'm going to take a break when this program is working

I know there are probably heaps better ways of doing this i just wanted to see if i could write a function on my own without notes but it doesnt look like i can yet.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <strcmp.h>

main()
{
	
	char c;
	char d;
	printf("Hi, I am the name genie and i am good at addition\nWhat would you like to do?\nPress A to subtract or B to get insight into your name");
	scanf("%s",c)
		if(!strcmp(c,a))subb;
		else nam;
		return 0;
}

subb()
int r;
int t;
int q;
{
     printf("Please enter a number the press enter : ");
	 scanf("%d",&r);
	 printf("What would you like me to add to that number? : ");
	 scanf("%d",&t);
     q=r+t;
	 printf("%d plus %d equals %d",r,t,q);
	 return 0;
}

nam()
char x[20];
char kate[9];
{
	printf("Please enter your name : ");
	scanf("%s",x);
	if(!strcmp(x,kate))
		printf("Thats a great name!!!!");
	else printf("Ha, what a crap name!!!");
	return 0;
}

i get these errors

c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\stdio.h(1) : warning C4182: #include nesting level is 363 deep; possible infinite recursion
c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\stdio.h(1) : fatal error C1076: compiler limit : internal heap limit reached; use /Zm to specify a higher limit

is this the right kind of layout for a program?

and you most let the compiler know of your funktions befour you call them.
Like this:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
*/more includes goes here*/

void subb ();
void nam ();*/cant see a reason for these to return a value else you can make them int or doulbe for example*/

and you should also say the

Code:

void subb (){

when you write the funktion.

cool
thanks guys
anyone have an idea whats wrong with the program?

**Shogun** · 07-25-2003

if you have changed everything like was said I think it should work.
(if it doesn't don't shoot me I'm no expert just someone playing with this on his sparetime)

**Shogun** · 07-25-2003

oh and what are you using the d variable in the main funktion for?

**money?** · 07-25-2003

Ok, thanks for the link.
About the program, one of the mistakes is:
>scanf("%s",c)
c is defined to be a character, so it shold be
scanf( "%c", &c )
or if you wanted to input a strind you should declare c as an array of characters.

I haven't seen all your program, just my eye fell on this part.
